    The reaction order and specific reaction rate were determined from the experimental batch reactor data. Plotting ln(CA0/CA) versus time resulted in a linear relationship, indicating the reaction is first-order. The slope of the line equals the rate constant k, which was found to be 0.139 s-1.

    Week Topic Topic Outcomes


    4 Collection and Analysis It is expected that students are able to:
    of Rate Data
    • Determine the reaction order and
    • Batch reactor data specific reaction rate from experimental
    o Integral method data.

    • Compute the rate law using numerical


    methods to analyze experimental data.

    • Analyze rate data using half lives


    method and method of initial rate.
    Introduction
    Chapter 4
    Once the rate law is known,
    • Substituted into design equation + stoichiometric

    Can size any isothermal reaction system

    Chapter 5
    Focus on ways of obtaining and analyzing reaction rate data to
    obtain the rate law for a specific reaction

    Reactor: Batch
    • C, P, and/or V are usually measured & recorded at
    different t during the course of the reaction.

    Analysis of Rate Data

    Methods for rate analysis


    • Integral method

    Value to be found from experiment –


    • Specific reaction rate k,
    • Order of reaction
    • Activation energy, E and frequency factor,
    A from Arrhenius equation
    Batch Reactor Data
    Experimental batch reactor usually operated
    isothermally and at constant volume as it easy to
    interpret the result.

    Commonly, the determination is achieve by


    measuring the concentration as a function of
    time or pressure-time data for gas phase
    reaction.

    Experimental data also used for determination of


    temperature dependency in reaction – Arrhenius
    equation.

    If the order we assume is correct, the appropriate plot of
